Former Prime Minister Raila Odinga made a dramatic entrance at State House, accompanied by a substantial presidential security detail. The event, broadcast live on President William Ruto's official X page (formerly Twitter) and blogger Felicis Marshall's Facebook page, featured Raila's convoy navigating the streets of Nairobi en route to State House.

This grand arrival, marked by the heavy security presence, underscores his influence and foreshadows his potential power as a candidate for the African Union Commission chairmanship.

Mr. Odinga delivered a powerful message to the heads of state who support his candidacy in the upcoming election for the position.

In his speech, Raila Odinga said " I dream of an African where boarders and colonial languages no longer divide us. We don't want want Africans to be divided as Anglophones, Francophones and Lusophones. I want them to be Africaphones."

However, Kenyans who support Raila Odinga's quest for the African Union seat reacted positively to his message as he prepares for the upcoming election.
